Description of problem: In xenguest_install.py the function get_paravirt_install_image() try to grab images/xen/vmlinuz to start the install in the guest OS. But it fails on xen (dom0) with PAE support, certainly because this images/xen/vmlinuz (needed by the domU to boot the install process from the repository) doesn't support PAE. Steps to Reproduce: 1. install and boot on kernel-xen (for PAE support on host with more than 4G of ram) 2. try to run a guest install using installguest-install.py Actual results: + exit 1 ERROR: Non PAE-kernel on PAE host. ERROR: Error constructing guest OS Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/server/SrvDomainDir.py", line 77, in op_create dominfo = self.xd.domain_create(config) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/XendDomain.py", line 228, in domain_create dominfo = XendDomainInfo.create(config) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/XendDomainInfo.py", line 190, in create vm.initDomain() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/XendDomainInfo.py", line 1311, in initDomain raise VmError(str(exn)) VmError: (9, 'Bad file descriptor') Expected results: xenguest-install.py should grabb a xen kernel image with PAE support for installing guest on host runing kernel-xen with PAE. Additional info: Both Xen kernel images (with and without PAE) should be present in repositories and cdroms. Is there a way to rebuild this xen kernel image to support PAE?
